A disposal system for the processing of solid waste devices to recycle materials located within the devices and recover, reuse and recycle such materials. Such system may include a primary chamber and secondary chamber, attached preferably by use of one or more exhaust ducts, and a secondary chamber exhaust duct. The solid waste devices may include any type of waste, such as electronics waste, medical device waste, and the like.

A solid hazardous waste pyrolysis process and full-set equipment including a pyrolysis box for hazardous waste and intermittent pyrolysis equipment. The equipment includes an outer and rotatable inner barrel; at least one pyrolysis material placement area is formed in the inner barrel; the placement area formed by multiple groups of guide plates circumferentially arranged on the inner wall of the barrel and baffles arranged on the top of plates at the two ends; each group of plates include vertical and sieve plates that are connected. Hazardous waste placed in the pyrolysis box; a box body is placed between the baffles of the pyrolysis material placement areas; after a pyrolysis device is sealed, heat is carried out to start pyrolysis; the box body rotates at the bottom of the inner barrel; and a material is heated, melts and falls onto the reaction medium below, completing pyrolysis of solid hazardous waste.

A combustion/pyrolization system for generating at least one of char and biochar comprising an upper base frame supporting a combustion/pyrolization housing, and the combustion/pyrolization housing having both an open top end and an open bottom end. A char collection bin defining a collection chamber therein and a perforated grate normally covering the open top end of the char collection bin. The perforated grate being sized so as to permit desired sized char and/or biochar to pass therethrough into the collection chamber. The open bottom end of the combustion/pyrolization housing of the upper base frame is movable into an engaged position where the combustion/pyrolization housing partially receives and surrounds the perforated grate and defines a combustion/pyrolization chamber for receiving and consuming feed material. The upper base frame is movable out of engagement with the perforated grate to facilitate movement of the perforated grate and removal of the generated char and/or biochar.

Applying heat from a heat source to a first region to cause a first pyrolysis process, the first pyrolysis process resulting in a gaseous mixture, and applying heat from the heat source to a second region to cause a second pyrolysis process, the second pyrolysis process being applied to the gaseous mixture, wherein the second region is located closer to the heat source than the first region. Pyrolysis is used to destroy oils, tars and/or PAHs in carbonaceous material.

Systems and methods for sealing a static or rotary tube to a rotary tube that is part of a thermal unit performing an airless or oxygen starved high-temperature incineration process like pyrolysis. Embodiments comprise a seal comprising a bearing assembly suspended on gimbals, the bearing assembly comprising an outer housing supporting therebetween a plurality of support rollers in contact with a rolling seal disk disposed between the flanges of the tubes. Embodiments comprise features that aid in preventing the bad effects of high temperatures and axial thrust loads of the tubes, including coordinating beveled portions on the support rollers and rolling seal disk. Embodiments comprise features for modularity and ease of maintenance, including gland plates, bore holes for oil and/or grease.
